Description:
At Gardens Interactive, we aim to connect the world through the universal power of play. We’re seeking a talented Senior Animator to join our vibrant and collaborative team, helping us bring our characters and worlds to life with unforgettable animations. If you’re passionate about crafting beautiful, high-quality animations and thrive in a fast-paced, inclusive environment, we’d love to hear from you!
WHO WE ARE
We’re a forward-thinking, distributed game studio founded by the creators behind titles like Journey, What Remains of Edith Finch, Blaseball, Dustforce, Ashen, Guild Wars 2, Firewatch, and more! Our name reflects our mission: to cultivate rich, immersive worlds that foster meaningful connections and lasting friendships. We believe in creating lush, living environments where players can engage in surprising multiplayer experiences and grow together with the support of their communities.
Our commitment to diversity, inclusivity, and transparency drives us to create a work environment where every voice is heard and valued. As a fully-distributed studio, we support our team in living and working from wherever they choose, offering competitive pay, stock options, flexible non-accrual paid time off, 35-hour work weeks, and comprehensive benefits, including full medical, vision, dental, and 401k contributions.
We’re excited to be developing our flagship project — a shared 3D fantasy adventure inspired by our favorite online gaming memories. This is the world we’re passionate about building and the world we want to experience every day.
Responsibilities:
- Collaborate with cross-functional teams including Tech Art, Design, and Production to create animations that elevate gameplay and ensure peak performance in the game engine.
- Set and maintain high standards for animation quality by partnering with craft experts and key stakeholders, pushing the boundaries of innovation and creativity.
- Create keyframed animations using industry-leading tools, from ambient creatures to complex bosses and heroes, ensuring they contribute meaningfully to the overall player experience.
- Mentor and inspire your fellow animators, fostering a culture of creativity, collaboration, and shared learning.
